It has been the aim of the authors to make an interesting story of each man's life and to tell those stories in a style so simple that pupils in the lower grades will read them with pleasure, and so dignified that they may be used with profit as text-books for reading.In this book, you will find important biographies every man should read at least once in their lives: Romulus, Nero, Julius Caesar, Marcus Aurelius, Pericles, Socrates, Alexander the Great...
